Random observations from your day

Ah. Well then. 

I hope you're billing them through the teeth for those hours.

I am.

Had a contractor friend who always told me he bills his clients as soon as he thinks about them. He wasn't wrong. It's too easy to reply to Teams messages or email during off hours without including any of it in the invoice. I'm getting better at it, though.

I'm doing odd hours for another client. It's not much, and most of it is just keeping up with their ever-changing ISO requirements, but I've been making sure that they pay for not only the actual hours put into those but also the admin work and all those little things that add up.

Our fridge has just gotten really loud.

Constantly, or right after you close the door?

I was sitting here watching amateur vids of the UFO that flew over NSW earlier and just then my smoke alarms mysteriously went off 

They don't want you to watch those vids.

My Android TV app is no longer connecting to the TV box. Must have been another update to the bloody box ruining it.

Comet Tv is back on an over the air station near me again

I miss that channel.  Some really neat bad sci-fi and horror movies as well as vintage sci-fi tv shows.

You can get it on your phone, computer or roku for free.  I have an old tv in my office that I use for broadcast stations and checking old video games and its nice to be able to have something on that doesn't require cable or internet

Felt makes a much better edging than black ribbon for ghost costume eyes.

Am attempting to sew for the cub. This doesn't happen often.

Awesome.
Was looking through old photos on the hard drive yesterday. When the kid was into Naruto and wanted to be Gaara...and there wasn't a costume to be found.





That damn Gourd took me a week to make.

That is really cool.

The ghost costume is pretty simple, just a cheap white towel that I cut holes in for eyes and mouth, but he's pretty excited about it. He loves being a ghost after his bath by putting the towel over his head.

Rain rain and yet more rain.  We left Florida in rain and came home to rain.  C'est la vie!

Lots of police downtown with lights on but nothing seems to be happening
